"A collection of the long-running newspaper columns from the Osceola Sentinel-Tribune, Osceola Iowa" -- cover.
Summary:
For ten years, Mickey Thomas wrote "Tales from the Aisles," a beloved newspaper column chronicling life in Osceola and rural southern Iowa. Now retired from writing his humorous "Tales," Thomas's columns are back by popular demand - in book form. In Tales from the Aisles 1 & 2, Thomas not only shares amusing anecdotes from the aisles of Robinsons, the landmark Osceola store that Thomas co-owns, but also reminisces about notable Osceola businesses, records local history, and even narrates his own hiking adventures in the Canadian Rockies and the Bavarian Alps. Perhaps most fondly, Thomas tells the stories of Osceola citizens and shares the memories of a bygone era.
